What If I Am Away From Home?
Most offices and schools have safety plans designed specifically for earthquakes.
You may want to check with these places, just to make sure.
As you prepare a checklist of earthquake supplies. for your home, don't ignore your
work and your car. You may want to keep changes of clothes and basic toiletries
in these places as well. Keep emergency water and food in your car. If you're taking
prescription medications, keep extras in your car, too.
Although it may seem unpleasant, you need to imagine the possible scenarios (trapped
in your home, office, school, car, etc.) and decide what items you'll need to have
with you.
